Tax abatement request tabled for developer who eyes old GLM property for gasifier
A new industry could be on the way for Battleford that would see household and industrial waste burned to produce hydroelectricity.
Bill Roberts with BZZ Enterprises asked the town for tax relief for the old GLM property on Fifth Avenue West which he has eyed as a possible location for a gasifier.
He requested a 60 per cent abatement on the $11,481.23 municipal tax bill.
But as the development is still in its infancy, agenda documents said the town had insufficient information to make an informed decision at this time.
